[Worth Listening To] César Cardoso – Dice of Tenors

“Dice of Tenors resulta da intenção do seu mentor, César Cardoso, de procurar novas abordagens, caminhos e ideias de composição e arranjo, através de uma formação alargada. Esta formação é constituída por 8 elementos, distribuídos por sopros – saxofone tenor, saxofone alto, trompete e trombone – e secção rítmica – vibrafone, piano, contrabaixo e bateria.

Tendo já outros projectos com formações em Quarteto e Quinteto e tendo escrito muitos arranjos para Big Band, a ideia desta formação surgiu por ser diferente do que tem feito e sobretudo para lançar a si mesmo o desafio de construir um disco com uma identidade própria mas com inovação e frescura na abordagem dos temas.

Para este disco, César Cardoso escolheu 8 temas, 6 dos quais são Standards do Jazz celebrizados por alguns dos maiores saxofonistas tenores – Hank Mobley, Benny Golson, John Coltrane, Dexter Gordon, Sonny Rollins e Joe Hendersone –, e compôs ainda 2 temas a completar o disco. Estes arranjos contêm abordagens e técnicas novas, recentemente estudadas, havendo a intenção de criar algo como se fosse um novo tema mas ao mesmo tempo sem perder a essência do original. Além disso, um dos pressupostos é o de elevar o nível musical através da sua complexidade harmónica, rítmica e métrica, sem perder o lado musical, tornando tudo o mais orgânico possível.

No percurso de César Cardoso encontram-se 3 álbuns, todos com música original – Half Step (2010), Bottom Shelf (2015) e Interchange (2018) –, mais de 100 arranjos para Orquestras e Big Bands – escritos sobretudo para a Orquestra Jazz de Leiria e para a Orquestra Jazz do Hot Clube de Portugal – e ainda 2 livros sobre a teoria no Jazz – Teoria do Jazz (2016) e Teoria do Jazz – Exercícios (2018).
